South America cruising delivered some of the most spectacular sights I have ever experienced — but also a few costly, frustrating, and very unexpected lows. On my recent 31-night South America cruise, I filmed live updates from eight of the region's most popular cruise ports and scenic cruising days, capturing what it was really like in the moment. From leaving the ship for two and a half days to visit Machu Picchu, to standing among penguins in the remote Falkland Islands, sailing past Cape Horn, Glacier Alley and the astonishing Brüggen / Pío XI Glacier, this trip had moments that were genuinely epic. But it was not all breathtaking views and once-in-a-lifetime experiences. In this video, I also reveal the South America ports and excursions that disappointed me, surprised me for the wrong reasons, or left me questioning whether the cost and effort were really worth it, and a few ports that sounded more exciting on paper than they felt in reality. I visit and discuss Lima, Machu Picchu, Port Stanley in the Falkland Islands, Ushuaia, Cape Horn and other Scenic Sailing Highlights, the Chilean Fjords, Punta Arenas, Magdalena Island, General San Martín, Puerto Montt, Coquimbo and La Serena — sharing the highs, the lows, the watch-outs, and what I would do differently next time. South America is one of the most varied and dramatic cruise regions in the world, but it is also unpredictable, expensive in places, and not always easy to get right.

Send us Fan MailHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul. I am delighted to welcome this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast, Comedian Jeff Nease. Listeners know that in addition to my passion for cruising, I am passionate about music and stand-up comedy. Accordingly, on The Joy of Cruising Podcast I love hosting performers from cruise ships, and Jeff has headlined on virtually every major cruise line, so I am excited to have a conversation with him. ‘Hilarious!' (Entertainment Today Magazine), “A high energy performer able to generate BIG laughs!” (Las Vegas Review Journal) and The Detroit Free Press simply declares “Jeff Nease makes us laugh!”. Observational, Conversational and often, Standing Ovational, Jeff Nease is there whenever ‘You Need Funny!' Jeff began his career in 1987. The performing ‘bug' bit while studying film and theater at the University of Toledo. Propelled by his love of the comedy albums of George Carlin, Steve Martin, Bill Cosby and Bob Newhart, it wasn't long before he found himself stepping on the stage of the local comedy venue ‘The Toledo Comedy Club'. He began to hone his craft anywhere he could find an audience: nightclubs, rock bars, colleges and lounges in and around his hometown in Northwest Ohio and Detroit, Michigan. Jeff applied his theater training as a founding member of the improvisational group ‘The Improvables'. This experience helped form the spontaneous element his show is known for. Jeff soon began touring comedy clubs and theaters in both the United States and Canada. New York to L.A., Vancouver to Nova Scotia. He became a finalist in the National Lampoon Laugh-Off, was seen on Television (A&E, PBS and Comedy Central) and opened up concerts for musical icons The Temptations and jazz great Najee. He also opened up for comedy stars Jim Carrey, Tim Allen and Ellen DeGeneres. Jeff also ventured out to sea. Today Jeff is currently one of the most sought-after comedians for the world's most popular cruise lines such as Royal Caribbean. He has performed around the world on vessels for Azamara, Celebrity Cruises, Cunard, Crystal Cruises, Holland America, Norwegian Cruise Line, Oceania Cruise Line, Regent Cruise Line, among others. Las Vegas became home for 14 years. Jeff performed at such iconic venues as The Riviera, MGM Grand, Tropicana, the Stardust, Rio and more. In addition to his nightclub work, Jeff performed for many of the various conventions and special events such as NAB (National Association of Broadcasters), COMDEX and CES (The Consumer Electronics Show).

Welcome back to another episode of the Sailing and Cruising the East Coast of the United States Podcast! In this episode, Mark Tieszen discusses sailing to the Dry Tortugas, Flotilla Safety, and Cruising Lessons Learned,You might remember Mark from his gripping appearance in Episodes 79 and 80, where he detailed the intense experience of running his 45-foot sailboat aground and washing up on a beach at night. Thankfully, this conversation centers on a much happier adventure—his successful blue water passage from the west coast of Florida to the breathtaking Dry Tortugas.Getting to this remote national park is no small feat. For Mark, this journey was a masterclass in patience and persistence, as it marked his fifth attempt over a ten-year period to successfully make the crossing. He opens up about his previous four attempts and the critical decision-making processes that led him to turn back when conditions weren't right. Mark breaks down the specific challenges of those past trips, including severe weather shifts, a sailing partner's sudden accident, and the unexpected government lockdowns of COVID-19 in Key West. He also breaks down the factors behind turning around during a fourth attempt with a Florida boating club flotilla, when high easterly winds promised a dangerously uncomfortable anchorage.This episode highlights the immense benefits and safety of sailing in a organized group or flotilla, utilizing a "hop-on, hop-off" itinerary managed by a cruise captain. Mark outlines their multi-day route skipping down the Florida coast to the Everglades, Marathon, and Key West, before finally conquering the final blue water stretch. Beyond the navigation logistics, you will get a fantastic history lesson on the Dry Tortugas and its surrounding strategic areas.Visual Episode Alert: Mark put together custom navigation charts, route diagrams, and gorgeous photos to document this successful trip.

Hear about luxury barge cruising in France as Chris Christensen describes a week aboard the Renaissance, a European Waterways hotel barge traveling through Western Burgundy and the Upper Loire. Chris and his wife previously cruised with European Waterways on the Canal du Midi. For this journey, they returned to France to explore the Briare Canal, one of the country's oldest canals, aboard a vessel carrying just eight passengers and five crew members. The result was an unusually intimate trip combining French cuisine, historic towns, private châteaux, Sancerre vineyards, canal locks, and long, leisurely afternoons on the water. ... https://amateurtraveler.com/cruising-the-briare-canal/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us Fan MailHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast; I am delighted to welcome Mike Jirout. Mike is one of those entrepreneurs who transcend consumer cruising history. Along with his brother he created Ship Mate, which I'm sure many of us remember: the first mobile app for the cruise industry in 2009 when Apple first opened up its infrastructure for third-party developers. They grew Ship Mate to millions of downloads before selling it. Then Mike virtually invented the "cruise accessories" market with, Cruise On, a line of 100+ products (lanyards, luggage tags, cruise power strips, hanging organizers, etc.) and sold millions of items before selling that business in 2023. The brand remains the leading cruise accessories line. Though Ship Mate and Cruise On have been sold Mike continues to innovate. He told me, “We're currently growing our consumer-facing cruise platform Gangwaze (Gangwaze.com) offering detailed cruise port and ship data down to the individual cabin level. We also have some business-to-business offerings, like custom made, vectorized deck plans—the hope is to make it as easy to filter/book a cabin as it is a seat on a flight. We also offer cruise agent products like a "Cruise Quote" tool for providing client quotes and a "Cruise Kit" for all post-booking info. At CruiseKeeps.com we customize cruise keepsakes (mugs, puzzles, canvas prints, etc.) with your ship itinerary map, port list, ship, sail date, etc. We have the Cruise Deals App, a mobile app for easily finding and booking cruises. We are currently launching the Cruise Quest Mobile App. It's a fun way to gamify your cruise experience with Bar Bingo and other fun games. I've built these with my brother, brother-in-law, and cousin as co-founders. Our family's love of cruising started with annual family reunion-cruises, where 50+ of us would get on a ship with our fluorescent t-shirts, numbered by age. It was our favorite way to reunite.Do you have a dream car?

Send us Fan MailHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast; I am delighted to welcome Jeff Cuellar, Chief Executive Officer, Sixthman, which offers Music Festival Experiences at Sea. I love all my guests, but Jeff is a particularly coveted one because as many of you know, I love theme cruises and thinks ever regular cruiser should put one on their bucket list. Those of you who read The Joy of Cruising know I have long been enamored of theme cruises and in that book wrote an entire section on theme cruising. I featured a number of examples of theme cruises and tried to include Sixthman given their importance in theme cruising. It was not to be, but today I am excited and grateful to present its CEO. Jeff Cuellar has over 20 years of experience in the entertainment business space, and he offers a unique perspective on the industry–both on land and sea. Jeff assumed the role of CEO of Sixthman in early 2024 and was recently named a Pollstar Impact 50 Honoree for his combined skills of leadership, entertainment and cruise line hospitality. Jeff spearheads Sixthman's creativity with events such as the Chefs Making Waves cruise occurring this November, with Food Network Chefs Bobby Flay, Scott Conant, Ayesha Nurdjaja and more on board.Check out Sixthman's upcoming events here: http://www.sixthman.net/festivals Do you have a dream car?

In this episode of the Sailing and Cruising the East Coast of the United States podcast , hosts Bela Musits and Mike Wasserman are joined by recurring guest Charlie Kirchofer to dive deep into the world of marine solar power and lithium-ion battery conversions. For many sailors, moving toward a more sustainable and independent power system is a significant undertaking that is often "harder than it sounds". Charlie shares his firsthand experience as he prepares to overhaul his boat's electrical systems to achieve true off-grid freedom.The conversation begins with the practical reasons behind this major project. Charlie explains that his primary motivation was a simple, everyday convenience: the refrigerator. Because his boat is kept on a mooring without access to shore power, he previously had to turn off the fridge and empty it every time he left the boat. By installing solar panels and lithium batteries, he can finally keep his fridge running 24/7, allowing him to leave condiments and cold drinks on board for the next weekend's sail.A major catalyst for this transition was the consistent failure of his existing generator. Charlie recounts the frustrations of dealing with an over-engineered Fisher Panda generator that suffered from chronic electronic issues and poor customer service. Between the difficulty of finding qualified technicians and the literal "headaches" of maintaining a noisy, sound-insulated diesel engine, Charlie decided it was time to move away from fossil-fuel-dependent power.The episode also covers the technical aspects of a marine solar installation. Charlie discusses the "three components" of his new system: flexible solar panels mounted on the bimini, a lithium-ion battery bank, and a high-output alternator. He shares his thought process on why he chose flexible panels over rigid ones to maximize "real estate" on his bimini without cluttering the deck. Listeners will gain valuable insights into the math required to ensure a solar array can handle constant loads like refrigeration and bilge pumps while keeping the batteries topped up.Whether you are looking to ditch a problematic generator or simply want to keep your beer cold without shore power, this episode provides a realistic look at the research, decision-making, and organization required for a successful solar conversion.Enjoyed the episode?

Tell us about your Adventure!Spending February in Port Aransas, Texas, followed by a 10-day Caribbean cruise offers a perfect blend of coastal charm and tropical excitement. Curt and Cindy from AdventuRetired podcast recently enjoyed this combination, discovering great restaurants, lively bars, and fresh seafood in Port Aransas before setting sail on a Carnival Cruise Line voyage from Galveston. Their journey included stops in Grand Cayman, Ocho Rios Jamaica, Roatan Honduras, Belize, and Cozumel Mexico, with memorable excursions and useful cruise tips along the way.
South America cruises can be spectacular — penguins in the Falklands, Cape Horn, Glacier Alley Chile, fascinating cities in Peru and Chile, end of the world in Ushuaia, Buenos Aires, Lima, Montevideo and more. But after cruising South America several times, including a recent 31-night voyage, I saw experienced cruisers making mistakes that could ruin the trip. In this, I reveal the biggest South America cruise mistakes I saw passengers make, from visa and entry rule surprises to choosing the wrong itinerary, underestimating sea days, misjudging the ports, getting excursions wrong, packing missteps, and getting caught out with money in ports. South America is not like cruising the Caribbean, Alaska or Europe. The distances are vast, the ports can be challenging, the weather can swing wildly, and the rules can change quickly. But get it right, and it can be one of the most memorable cruise regions in the world. This should help ensure any South America cruise does not unravel before it even begins Become a Tips For Travellers Patron: https://www.patreon.com/tipsfortravellers and get exclusive Patron-only content, downloads and livestreams Visit my Tips For Travellers YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/tipsfortravellers Offers: Get 10% any order of The Cruise Maps who you visit the site using this link: https://www.TheCruiseMaps.com/TFT Get up to 30% off collectible tokens of place you've visited using the link: https://www.TheWanderClub.com/TFT

Send us Fan MailHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast; I am honored to welcome Filippos Venetopoulos, Chief Executive Officer, Variety Cruises. Variety has been creating a better world at sea for over 75 years, offering travelers the comforts and unique benefits of small ship cruising while exploring the true identity of a destination. Filippos Venetopoulos is the third-generation leader of Variety Cruises, one of the world's longest-standing small ship cruise companies, founded by his family in 1949. After graduating with distinction from New York University's Stern School of Business, Filippos gained international experience in banking, adventure cruising, and tourism before returning to Greece to join the family business. In 2021, during one of the most challenging periods in the history of global tourism, he assumed the role of Chief Executive Officer and embarked on a mission to reposition Variety Cruises for a new era of travel. Under his leadership, the company has strengthened its focus on authentic small-ship experiences, sustainability, cultural immersion, and meaningful connections between travelers and destinations. His vision extends beyond cruising itself: to demonstrate that tourism can be a force for positive change while creating memorable experiences for guests, employees, and local communities alike. Filippos serves as a Board Member of SETE (the Greek Tourism Confederation) and was elected President of the Hellenic Professional Yacht Owners Association (HPYOA) in 2026. He is an active advocate for the advancement of Greek tourism, maritime entrepreneurship, and sustainable travel practices. A passionate believer in lifelong learning, personal growth, and people-centered leadership, Filippos is known for combining entrepreneurial thinking with a strong commitment to culture, hospitality, and human connection. His guiding vision for Variety Cruises is simple yet ambitious: "To create a better world at sea." Filippos lives in Athens with his wife, Ersi, and their daughter. Today, Variety Cruises is the number one fleet of small ships, hosting around 50 guests on board each sailing, giving the company the ability to bring voyagers to smaller, less crowded ports around the globe. With sailings in Greece, Italy, Malta, the Adriatic Sea, West Africa, French Polynesia, the Seychelles and beyond, travelers can discover authentic local and Indigenous cultures, regional cuisine, ancient sites, remote villages and natural wonders only small ships can reach.Do you have a dream car?

Today's brief covers three stories shaping the cruise calendar. Fincantieri has delivered the LNG-ready Mein Schiff Flow, the ninth ship for TUI Cruises, from its Monfalcone yard, a roughly 160,000-gross-ton vessel carrying 3,984 guests, with a christening set for Trieste and a Mediterranean program based out of Palma de Mallorca. Norwegian Sun opens its 2026 Northern Europe season on seven-to-ten-night sailings between Copenhagen and Helsinki, one of its last seasons with Norwegian Cruise Line before the ship transfers to India-based Cordelia Cruises in 2027 to become Cordelia Sun. And Aroya, the only ship operated by Cruise Saudi, will screen 2026 FIFA World Cup matches across its seven-night Eastern Mediterranean cruises from Istanbul, with fan zones and themed activities on board through mid-September.

This new crop of ultra luxury cruise lines is fascinating, not just because many of them are associated with well known hotel brands, but because they’re appealing to a newer, younger demographic; one that might not have cruised -- or thought about cruising. What’s the appeal for them? In this episode, host Rebecca Tobin and cruise editor Teri West talk with Christina Schlegel, the owner of Bluetail Travel, and Paul Tumposky, the chief revenue officer of Fora Travel, a about the appeal of lines like Four Seasons Yachts, Ritz Carlton Yacht Collection and Explora Journeys and the new pathways they’re opening up in cruising. This episode was recorded May 29 and has been edited for length and clarity.

Welcome back to FUT IN REVIEW | World Cup Daily #20. Milestone alert! We have officially hit 20 daily tournament episodes. Today, Shaq (wearing a punishment orange shirt after losing a bet to John) and John team up at 6:00 AM to break down a thrilling, high-scoring slate of Day 10 matches at the World Cup 2026.We break down all the matches, tactical masterclasses, and rants unfiltered:The Houston Masterclass: John completely predicted it! Ronald Koeman started Brian Brobbey as a physical number nine, and the Oranje completely dismantled Sweden 5-1. We analyze how the early hydration break forced Sweden to alter their 5-back system, paving the way for braces from both Brobbey and Cody Gakpo, capped off by a late Crysencio Summerville strike.Undav's Toronto Rescue: Germany secures their spot in the knockouts after a brutal, physical midfield war with Ivory Coast (2-1). Frank Kessié shocked the Germans early, but Julian Nagelsmann's ultimate super-sub weapon, Dennis Undav, struck a lethal winner in the 96th minute. We debate if Undav should finally start or remain the tournament's best tactical bench weapon.The 15-Save Miracle: Ecuador threw absolute everything at Curaçao, registering 15 shots on target and hitting the crossbar, but the match ended in a thrilling 0-0 deadlock. The headline? 37-year-old goalkeeper Eloy Room pulled off a historic, generational performance with the most saves recorded in a single World Cup match since 1966. Plus, we highlight former Man United winger Tahith Chong's brilliant performance.Japan Cruise, Tunisia Sinks: Sacking your manager 4 days before facing a fluid Japan team doesn't work. We track the live action as Japan completely outclasses Tunisia 3-0 through goals from Daichi Kamada and Ayase Ueda, securing their cruise to the top of Group F alongside the Dutch.We are recording at 6:00 AM completely sleep-deprived to bring you every single match breakdown live!
